Yamadera (Hojuzan Risshakuji) is a thousand-year-old temple founded in 860 AD. It is famous for its 1,015 stone steps. The climbing process is considered a spiritual path to purify the soul. The temple preserves the national important cultural property Konkonchudo, the Fumodo Dharma Lamp, and the golden statue of Amida Tathagata. The five main halls on the top of the mountain overlook the beautiful mountains. This is also the place where the haiku master Matsuo Basho left his famous quotes, full of history and Zen.
